Again.... Dak is going on his 8th season. Rush is going on his 7th season.

Rush has been in the league pretty as long as Dak and lives his career bouncing back and forth on and off practice squads while Dak has been a starter since his first year.

No disrespect at all to Rush because I really do appreciate what he has done for us when he stepped in.....

But there's nothing he has ever done that could make Dak look bad.

Check this out..... Aaron Rodgers is 0-4 head to head vs Jimmy Garoppolo. So I guess Garoppolo makes Rodgers look bad huh....
What makes Dak look bad is that the team was good enough to not really miss much of a beat when he went out. Does it mean Rush is that good? No, it merely means that Dak added to the mix isn’t enough of a differentiation factor. See no one expects a backup with a noodle arm to win. However the team as it’s built is good enough to win with a limited QB. Which means that if you put Dak on that team the expectation is that there should be enough of a difference making ability to peovide elevated play at that position - this means that his addition should mean that the Cowboys would be more competitive against the Eagles and 9-ers, but the proof is out there that he isn’t the net difference maker. If anything he is marignally better than Rush.

Ok cool. So Trent Dilpher, Matthew Stafford and Nick Foles all started and won a Superbowl. Jim Kelly, Dan Marino, and Warren Moon NEVER won a Superbowl.

Marino and Kelly are in the HOF without a ring.

Which Superbowl winning quarterback I've named at the top do you believe will join Kelly and Marino in the Hall of Fame.... Dilpher, Stafford or Foles.

After you answer that question. Answer the original question I asked you please.

I said Garoppolo is 4-0 vs Aaron Rodgers head to head. So does that mean Garoppolo is the better quarterback between the two??

What other quarterbacks in history have been carried to the top 10 list every season most of their careers??? Or is Dak the first one in history?

Agree 100%.

as much as it pains me ,”Jalen Hurts still delivered a masterful performance in the loss. He finished the game going 27-38 for 304 yards and a touchdown through the air and tacked on 15 carries for 70 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.”

Hurts was a complete beast that game and Im on record as saying that before last season he was a limited QB. I was dead wrong. The boy can ball.
Yes he can! People will disregard Hurts claiming he is a system QB but that's not true. He is a versatile QB that can beat you with his legs or arm. Some of the throws he made to his TE and WR were placed high and away from where the defender could get to and only his guy knew where it was going. Just great ball placement.

Would Marino with that Baltimore defense that carried Dilfer have won him a title? Would anyone in their right mind claim that there was no decernble difference between Marino and Dilfer? Would defensive coordinators say that Marino wasn’t a difference maker at the qb position and did not provide any difference between Dilfer? Yes teams win and lose games but the point is what each individual adds to the position. Pollard went out and Zeke at this point in his career provided nothing because the difference between him and Pollard was night and day. The same it is with Dak and Rush, except the difference isn’t as vast as anyone claims that it is. Dak is physically more gifted than Rush but his problem is between the ears and how he processes the info. This ends up making them guys who are closer to Dilfer than Marino. Yes can you win with them? Sure, but end of the day if given a choice no one and I do mean no one is going to pick Dak, Rush or Dilfer over Marino.

Men lie, women lie, numbers don't.

That could be either the production numbers or the salary numbers. Both of those numbers kill the argument between Prescott and Rush. Period.

There's levels....
